Throwback Thursday:: Gabriel & Dresden
Artist Overview
Gabriel & Dresden is an American electronic music duo comprising Josh Gabriel and Dave Dresden, formed in San Francisco, California. They collaborated from 2001 to 2008, then again from 2011 to the present. During that time, they have created numerous hit songs and remixes, some of which are considered classics. They won the coveted Winter Music Conference IDMA award for "Best American DJ" twice, in 2007 and 2008, the latter time on the same day that the group split up. The pair reunited in early 2011 and proceeded on a reunion tour, which began at Ruby Skye in San Francisco on March 4, 2011. They produced three studio albums together: a self-titled album (Gabriel & Dresden 2006), The Only Road (2017) which was released after an 11-year hiatus period, and Remedy (2020). In sort of sad/happy news. More recently Josh has suffered some health issues and is recovering, and as result, David has been overseeing much of the DJ-related activities. We hope that Josh can recover and the boys can get back into the studio and on the road soon.
Mix Overview
There are hundreds and I mean hundreds of G&D sets on the internet via Mixcloud, SoundCloud, Twitch, and heck I bet if you still torrented, you could find sets there too. The Ministry of Sound October 2nd, 2015 from London just seems to be one of my favorites and I have had it in my 2022 DJ Sets playlist since last January and find myself always reaching back to listen throughout the months. In addition to the ‘classics only’ set below. I wanted to include some of their top hits, which include tracks lie ‘Trackin Treasure Down,’ ‘In My Memory,’ and ‘Beautiful things’. I hope you enjoy listening to the mixes and their original production. Don’t forget to like, follow, and subscribe, with the links to their music below.
